Read: Nancy Pelosi ‘s opening statement on impeachment day

It’s a historic day in Washington as Donald Trump is poised to become only the 3rd President in history to be impeached by the House of Representatives. As final votes about debate rules come to a close and the madness officially begins, Pelosi ‘s opening statement is making its rounds online.

“The republic for which it stands is what we are here to talk about today,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday as she opened up debate on the House of Representatives’ historic vote on the impeachment of President Donald Trump.

“We gather today under the dome of this temple of democracy to exercise one of the most solemn powers that this body can take: the impeachment of the president of the United States,” Pelosi said, standing next to a poster showing an American flag and the opening lines of the Pledge of Allegiance.
